As you can see in this shot the larger chick takes a protecting stance over it's siblings. It stayed up front the whole time and either bowed it's head face down while waving back and forth, or had it's wings up in a protecitng pose.
Hi Corine
This is a great capture of this Blue Heron. Very colorful surroundings and I like the reflections in the water. Very well done. There is only one thing I would have done diffident is the way you cropped it. I did a work shop on it and cropped it so the subject is looking in to the scene instead of out. And I tried to take out the branch across his bill. I hope you like it. All in all it a very nice shot and thanks for sharing.
Tom
